ICGI initiated with the major purpose of increasing the knowledge of structure and function of the cotton genome for the benefit of global community (http :/icgi.tamu.edu). Aims are to facilitate global communications, collabora- tion and education, increase knowledge, and resource integration, enhance technology and resource development and help coordinate research planning in the areas of cotton genomics. Meetings were held in Canberra, 2000 (Australia) and Montpellier, 2001 (France). The last meeting was the first Scientific ICGI Workshop and was held in Nanjing, China hosted by Nanjing Agricultural University. It was attended by more than 90 researchers from 14 countries and contributed 105 oral and poster presentations. The proceedings were published and are available on website of ICGI <http:/icgi.tamu.edu> The ICGI made announcement in the World Cotton Research Conference – 2003 held in South Africa about holding of 4th ICGI Workshop in India in 2004. ICGI functions through formalized structure and an International Steering Committee. Dr. David Stelly is the Chair of ICGI presently. There are new chairs and co-chairs for the 5 work groups that comprise ICGI’s main organiza- tional architecture. The five working groups are Structural Genomics, Functional Genomics, Germplasm and Genetic Stocks, Evolutionary and Comparative Genomics and Bioinformatics. Each of these work groups are charged with executing the ICGI mission by: 1. Formulating long-term collaborations; 2. Identifying the strategic research goals; 3. Identifying shared resources; 4.

Govt. Polytechnic ,Hyderabad, Telangana, India. Prof. M. Chandra Sekhar2 . Registrar, NIT, Warangal, Telangana,India. Abstract: During the past few years grave concern is being voiced by people from different walks of life over the deteriorating conditions of Hussain Sagar Lake. As a result of heavy anthropogenic pressures, the eco-systems of lake are not only strengthening in its surface becoming poor in quality, posing health hazards to the people living in around close proximity to the lake. Over the years the entire eco-system of Hussain Sagar Lake has changed. The water quality has deteriorated considerably during the last three decades. Over the years the lake has become pollution due to immersion of Ganesh Idols. Many undesirable changes in the structure of biological communities have resulted and some important species have either declined or completely disappeared. Keywords: Groundwater quality, PH , Turbidity,TDS, COD, BOD, DO, before immersing of idols, after immersing of idols. INTRODUCTION Hyderabad is the capital city of Telangana and the fifth largest city in India with a population of 4.07 million in 2010 is located in the Central Part of the Deccan Plateau.

    Indian Journal of Economics & Business, Special Issue China & India (2006) : 1-... HIGH TECHNOLOGY CLUSTERS IN INDIA AND CHINA: DIVERGENT PATHS SUSAN M. WALCOTT Georgia State University, Atlanta and JAMES HEITZMAN University of California, Davis The economic giants of Asia, India and China, encourage clusters of high technology companies to fuel their national economic development drives, but the paths of these neighbors follow divergent trajectories due to different interconnections between government policy and business strategy. Based on field research, economic data and targeted case studies, this article explores the impact of regional political agency, technology infrastructure (unconnected versus integrated), the central government (hands-off versus highly involved), private capital (large versus negligible), and foreign direct investment. The picture emerging from each countrys profile allows assessment of short and long-term change for these urban clusters. 1. THE TECHNOPOLE AND ASIAN URBANIZATION A growing body of multi-disciplinary scholarship focuses on technopoles: dynamic clusters of research and production organizations generating rapid employment growth within innovative sectors, forming an important component of public policy. The technopole effect - encompassing spin-offs from co-located science or business parks, the segregated enclaves of privileged employees, attractive recreational amenities, and enabling infrastructure - produces a characteristic urban morphology within an emerging category of technology-based world cities. The transformed environments where the technopole effect occurs, often defined as corridors, signify a major component in urban policy that aims at the stimulation of services on the borders of former urban cores. A clear need exists for examining such spaces of human interaction, based on case studies of new urban developments offering possibilities for global application (Grant and Nijman 2002).

  • Lacones-CCMB Releases Guidelines for COVID-19 Testing in Zoo Animals Hyderabad, 21St June, 2021: COVID-19 Has Been Reported in Z
    LaCONES-CCMB releases guidelines for COVID-19 testing in zoo animals Hyderabad, 21st June, 2021: COVID-19 has been reported in zoo animals in India in the last month. The Laboratory for the Conservation of Endangered Species (LaCONES) of CSIR-Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB), Hyderabad is one of the four designated centres for testing animal samples for possible coronavirus infection. With support from Central Zoo Authority and Ministry of Environment, Forestry and Climate Change, it has released guidelines for zoo frontline on COVID-19 investigation in captive animals. “The guidelines provide detailed protocols that include pictorials and frequently asked questions for an easier understanding of those collecting samples for COVID testing in wildlife”, said Dr. Vinay K Nandicoori, Director, CSIR-CCMB. LaCONES started testing animal samples for possible SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection in August 2020. The scientists found the first positive samples from Asiatic lions in Nehru Zoological Park, Hyderabad in April 2021. In this time, LaCONES team has tried testing for coronavirus using different kinds of – nasal, oropharyngeal, rectal and fecal samples from the animals. LaCONES regularly tests wildlife samples using DNA-based molecular biology tools to solve wildlife cases. These tests are very similar to the ones being used for coronavirus testing. “We hope that our recommendations help the zoo staff in collecting and packing the samples appropriately before they send out to animal testing centres will smoothen the process for the zoos as well as testing centres. Given how difficult it is to get samples from animals, it is all the more important that we make most of the samples we get”, said Dr.

  • Bharat Biotech Announces Successful Completion of Its Phase I/Ii Clinical Trial for 116E Rotavirus Vaccine
    BHARAT BIOTECH ANNOUNCES SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF ITS PHASE I/II CLINICAL TRIAL FOR 116E ROTAVIRUS VACCINE Press release dated: 28th May, 2008 The Indian Rotavirus Vaccine Development Project (RVDP) announced today encouraging results from a recent Phase I/II clinical trial of a live, natural reassortant, Oral Rotavirus Vaccine 116E (ORV 116E), conducted in New Delhi, India. RVDP is a collaborative effort with support and guidance from the Department of Biotechnology, Government of India; PATH; US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC); Stanford University; US National Institutes of Health, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID); Society for Applied Studies; National Institute of Immunology, New Delhi; Indo-US Vaccine Action Program; All India Institute of Medical Sciences and Bharat Biotech International Limited. Rotavirus infections are the single largest cause of severe diarrheal disease among infants and children worldwide and cause more than 500,000 deaths in infants and children each year, with 90% of these deaths occurring in the world’s poorest countries. Rotavirus diarrhea causes more than 120,000 deaths in India alone. The Phase I/II trial was designed as a Double-blind Randomized Placebo Controlled Dose Escalating Study of ORV 116E in healthy non-malnourished infants 8-20 weeks of age with safety and immunogenicity as the primary and secondary objectives, respectively. The study was conducted by the Society for Applied Studies in New Delhi. The doses selected for administration were 104.0 and 105.0 FFU with reactogenicity, immunogenicity and viral shedding as the study endpoints. One-hundred and eighty-seven infants were enrolled for the 104.0 FFU dosage and 182 were enrolled for the 105.0 FFU dosage.
